Hyatt Hotels Corporation unveiled plans for brand portfolio expansion across Asia Pacific.
It has a pipeline of luxury and lifestyle hotels and resorts set to open in late 2022 and 2023, to coincide with the rebound of leisure travel in the region.
This includes the strategic entry of several brands into new markets, such as the arrival of The Unbound Collection by Hyatt in Japan, the Andaz brand in Thailand, and the Hyatt Centric brand in Southeast Asia.
Following the relaxation of travel restrictions across much of Asia Pacific, we remain confident in the region’s path to recovery,” said Carina Chorengel, Senior Vice President, Commercial, Asia Pacific, Hyatt.
“We are seeing greater demand for premium accommodations and longer stays at Hyatt hotels. With nearly 70% of our global portfolio classified as luxury and upper upscale, we are well positioned to meet the growing demand.”

Fuji Speedway Hotel, the first hotel under The Unbound Collection by Hyatt brand in Japan.
Hyatt Centric Kota Kinabalu will be Hyatt Centric brand’s first hotel in Southeast Asia.
Andaz Pattaya Jomtien Beach marks the debut of the Andaz brand in Thailand in the fourth quarter of 2022.
